The moment the attempts to set the
Pennsylvania Railroad depot afire were
discovered, the railroad and police authori-
ties gave it out that the strikers who had
quit the company's service were RESPONSE
Bile for them. Now why should they have
jumped to this conclusion? The laboring
element is not an element of murderers
and incendiaries. They have their homes
and their families, and respect life and
property as thoroughly as any other class
more thoroughly than most classes. The
mere fact that they have a grievance does
not make them outlaws. Nor are they the
only people who may have grudges to
avengs upon the railroad. Such villain Gus
attempts at incendiarism and murder as
werc discovered in the depot and on the
ferry boats, Friday, are denounced by the
real iaborers Of the community. They have
no sympathy with them. Why may they
not have been the work of some pillaging
socialists, with no sympathy with honest
labor, who selected the depot as the scene
Of their smoking warfare, just for the pur-
pose Of thrown, suspicion upon an limo
cent body OF men? That is the plan they
usually follow. They carry the torch
wherever there is variance or tumult, and
escape detection themselves at the expense
of others, who would only too gladly help
to draw the halter on them.

Every one who knows anything of this
paper knows where it stood during the
greatest Senatorial struggle this State has
ever witnessed. Leon Albeit had won the
legislative contest, and was entitled by all
tho rules of common honor and deceney to
the reward. The Party recognized his
claim by giving him its nomination; and it
was the duty of every Democrat in the
Legislature to sink all his personal prefer.
ences and give in his adhesion to him. The
men who refused to do this have injured
themselves as much as they have their
party. They may be rewarded with little
temporary patronage, at the hands of the
man whom they put in place; but they
have forever closed the avenues of political
promotion that opened SO promisingly be-
fore them a few days ago. 1t is all honor
to the men who stood bravely by their
colors, and went down with them flying
calamity at the mast head.

The journal is never right. When
doesn't lie purpossly, it errs through igno'
rance; and the smallest possible reliance
can be placed on any thing it says. Fol
instance. it crows over the sine die adjourn
ment of the Senatorial Joint Convention,
because it declares that no future Joint
meeting will be agreed to by the Senate,
and the election of some Democratic State
officers will be defeated. The fact is that
Joint Convention of the Houses held by
direction of the Federal laws for the choice
OF Senator, cannet be continued fer the
election of any State officials; and it ceased
to be Joint Convention the moment the
election of the Senator had been formally
declared. A Joint Meeting for the election
of State officers is quite another thing
from Joint Convention for the election of
United States official; and it could not
be held without tho express concurrence
of the two Houses. Then it says that the
Post Office burglars are unwilling to come
from New York to this State. and that they
are held pending steps to extradite them
to Trenton. Why, they are in the custody
of the United States, and the jurisdiction
Of the court that commits them is as broad
as the land. The simple commitment of
the Judge will land them in Trenton with
out sny extradition proceedings. The Jour
nails ignorance on public topics is some
thing surprising.

placed upon criticism OF judge or jury or

this guarantee of free speech is not a
license to destroy the law under which
free speech is possible.
The arrest Of Herr Most was upon no
pretext. The people of this country do
not dread criticism, but provide for
ireest criticism by law. AS long as
Johann Most b cps within that law he
can harangue meetings snd print his ut
terances ad nauseam, but when he coun-
sells destruction of the very guarantee of

with it or comprehension of it, he should

Poor France! President Grevy init
mates that 1t is impossible to govern her.
He has tried it to his hearts content and
that that sll-powerfuI cabinet could be
no sooner formed than the ubiquitous
"crisis" would bound into the arena and
pulverize it into smithereens. This must
give those gentlemen VINO are posing So
the lawful kings of France courage. If
the plebs cannot steer the ship they should
have the grace to stand aside and allow
the pre iorians, whose regular trade is
governing, to come in. There is fatal
faults in the constitution Of the republic.
If President Grevy had few postoffices,
cabinet positions and foreign consulships
to strew around he could draw about him
party that would be irresistible. The
French President is sort OF wrong font
ruler. He has no chance to exercise the
force of his spinal column. When things
go wrong he can only resign. He is the
creature of the politicians and not of the
people ana he has no power behind him
except the whims OF the place hunters.
The French people should organize a
government of the people, for the people
and by the people and 1t will stand.

CONGRESSMAN MARTINI NARROW ESCAPE.
WASHINGTON, Nov. % The Congress
sionel career of Hon. W. 81 Martin of
Texas nearly come to an inglorious and
tragic end night before last. He arrived
in the city Tuesday, registered at the
Willard hotel, and was assigned a room
commensurate with his official dignity.
Late in the evening he turned himself
over to a barber and experienced 8
haircut. After sacrificing his Samson
ian locks he further submitted to
the demands of the new social life in the
vortex OF which he had so suddenly
plunged, by discardlng his Texas flannel
shirt and donning broad expanse
OF collar. Then submitting to the
formality OF shine, he retired
to his room with the evident
consciousness Of man who felt that he
had discharged his full duty towarde new
civilization, and WAS prepared for sny
ems rgency that might arise. Along
about midnight the halls OF the hotel be-
Came sitting with the odor of
ESCAPING GAS.
Mr.. Dewitt, one OF the attaches Of the
house, upon making the discovery, ct
once surmised that somebody had blown
out the gas. He began searching, and
finally located the odor at the door Of the
Texas congressman. To his rappiDg at
the door there was no response.
Summoning porter be burst open the
door, and found the room filed with gas,
the jet turned on, and the Lone
Star statesman lying in bed uucon-
scious. Aid was called and after long
course of treatment the Texas Congress
man was saved to his constituency. He
explained that, not knowing how the
derned thing worked, he had blown out
the gas.

THE day for the meeting Of the next
Congress draws nigh. Very naturally the
public eye is turned upon the movements
and views Of such leaders as Carlisle, Ran
dali and others. Mr.. Carlisle has been in
Washington some time in conference with
representative men on such matters of
public interest as Congress will have to
deal with during its approaching session.
Both of the great parties know that the
people demand reduction of taxation to
the dtminishnent of the Treasury sur
plus. The Republican idea, which is the
protection policy, is to take the taxes
from whisky and tobacco. The Demo
cratic idea is to reduce the tariff. The
Democrats have the President and Lower
House, while the Republicans have the
Senate. While evenly divided political
strength keeps all parties on their
gooa behavior it is to be
feared that organized protection Will have
the advantage of divided Democracy in
the coming struggle. But it is safe to
say that no party will oppose reduc-
ton of the surplus.

FOOLISH ANTIRANDAkLIsMs

FOOLISH II-RANDALLISMS.
THE GAzETTE's Washington dispatches
indicate what has been expected all along
snd what this paper has time and again
observed, that revision of the tariff
would be part of the labors OF Congress
at its present session, and that compro-
mise would be arrived st, satisfactory in
general to the country, though neither
following the policy OF Mr.. Mills, nor of
Mr.. Randall. The terrific vsporings of
free traders on the one side and the stolid
stubbornness OF high tariff advocates on
the other, exemplify the two extreme
views Of the question. There are all
shades Of opinions on the subject Of tariff
reform, guided and colored by sectional
interests, and the only solution possible,
and the only disposition OF the question
that can be reasonably expected
is a liberal comgonise, where each
side will make Concessions and where
conflicting interests must be harmon
lied. All Democrats and all Republicans
for that matter, agree that more money
is being collected from the people than is
necessary to administer the government
economically, and that the large and
ever increasing surplus ACCOMPLISHING in
the national treasury, by gradually lessen
ing the volume in circulation, threatens
disaster to the business interests of the
caantry. Both Democrats and Republic
cens disagree among themselves as to the
bess mespsSof accomplishing this pur-
pose. Many good Democrats advocate
the reduction and some the abolition of
the internal revenue tax, while others,
who believe that the internal revenue tax

SAYS the Waco Examiner: "The
Panhandle of Texas is the coming Ell
dorado. Within the next ten years the
Panhandle of Texas will cut very con-
siderable figure in the history Of the
worlds advance. There is wide ex-
pause of richest country there and it is
all virgin territory, all undisturbed as yet
by the ruthless ambitions or Flooding
ploughshares of civilized man. The finest
f lid for investment we now know of is in
the Panhandle. There is to be tremen-
dous effort to make another state Of it,
and if ever Texas is divided this favored
region will form the nucleus Of the new
state" The Panhandle Eldorado would
